I have a 1U server that supports 2 SATA drives in the chassis. I have 2 750 GB 
SATA drives. When I install opensolaris, I assume it will want to use all or 
part of one of those drives for the install. That leaves me with the remaining 
part of disk 1, and all of disk 2. 

Question is, how do I best install OS to maximize my ability to use ZFS 
snapshots and recover if one drive fails?

Alternatively, I guess I could add a small USB drive to use solely for the OS< 
and then have all of the 2 750 drives for ZFS. Is that a bad idea since the OS 
drive will be "standalone"?

Thanks for your help.
